Terrified at what my family wanted to do to me, I ran away from them straight into the arms of a gray-eyed stranger.

The man taught me how to love, creating a cocoon around my heart that nothing could break.

I thought my old life was behind me, but my dreams didn't come true.

They had found me and manipulated the situation in their favor, destroying my life in the process.

To save the man I loved, I had no choice but to betray him.

He was out of prison now.

He would come for revenge.

All I could do was pray for mercy.

Five years.

That was how long I had spent in prison for the crime I didn’t commit.

My life, my status, my woman were stolen from me.

So many people due revenge from for the injustice done to me.

But I’d start with the one who betrayed me the most.

The woman I loved, the only woman who occupied my thoughts all those years, from the moment I’d met her.

The only woman I used to live for.

Vivian.

V.F.Mason always loved reading books and had quite a few fights with her mama over the genre she liked (romance, duh!) She studied filmmaking and thought that would feed her desire for stories, but that didn't happen.

Finally, when she was tired of all those voices in her head, she sat down and wrote a book. It was a huge decision to make and she thanks her friends and family for supporting her in it.

When she is not writing, she can be found with her friends doing all sorts of crazy things or reading recent romance books that were written by her favorite authors.
